Reinventing the Millennium

The reporter's interview did not attract much attention from Fang Zhuo, because just when he wanted to continue to stabilize the laying work in Zhejiang Province, Xu Keden from Shanghai came to the news that the player prototype had been made.

It only took more than half a month to return to Lin'an from Shanghai, and Xu Keden's original plan of one month was brought forward a lot.

Fang Zhuo was very happy. After waiting for two days to get the prototype named No. 1, his joy was extinguished.

In one word, ugly.

The players in his impression were all quite beautiful and compact. A size 1 would be enough to occupy a "small" place.

Fang Zhuo then personally tried it for two days and found many problems. The storage capacity is large, but when it is actually used to listen to music, it is difficult to find songs. Hundreds of songs need to be searched one by one.

Secondly, the file transfer speed after No. 1 is connected to the computer is too slow. You have to wait ten minutes for a song to be transferred. This would be too disruptive for daily use if there are ten or twenty songs.

Also, the screen responds slowly to the buttons, and there is always a feeling of being stuck.

And so on, the No. 1 prototype only surprised Fang Zhuo when the news appeared, and the small problems that were slowly discovered made him feel quite depressed.

After product manager Xu Keden listened to his boss's complaints about the prototype machine on the phone, he replied calmly: "We can find ways to solve these problems. The prototype machine is just a rough model. For example, the file transfer speed you mentioned, ours is USB1.0 version, the latest one now is 1.1, let me ask my colleagues."

Xu Keden gave a simple example and then said strangely: "Mr. Fang, why didn't you ask me about the sound quality? This is the key point for the player. I listened to Walkman and No. 1, and I have to admit that the gap is not small."

"Isn't the compression of the MP3 format itself affecting the sound quality?" Fang Zhuo really didn't pay much attention to the sound quality performance and hesitated, "Is there a big gap between us? I remember you said that you wanted to try different DAC chips. This is the best Performance?"

"That's not true. No. 1 didn't test the chip more. I'm just worried about everyone's acceptance of the sound quality." Xu Keden considers that sound quality is the top priority of the player, and his recent work is all about improving the sound quality, but The effect can only be said to be unsatisfactory.

Fang Zhuo thought for a long time before saying: "Although we are both players, we still need to differentiate to compete. The main thing will be lightness and ease of use. As long as the sound quality is average, I think the sound quality can't be compared no matter how you compare it." Sony, which has been doing this for so long, right? There are also inherent disadvantages in terms of format."

Xu Keden was speechless, this was really the truth.

The feedback on the No. 1 prototype has come to an end. Fang Zhuo will continue to trial it for a while, while Xu Keden will optimize the current problems. He still has many things to solve.

On March 2, before Fang Zhuo could think about the player, Yu Hong suddenly found him in a hurry, grabbing the newspaper.

Snapped.

The newspaper was slapped on the table.

"Did you go behind my back to find a reporter?" Yu Hong asked, pointing to the report in the newspaper.

"I'll look for you... Why am I carrying you?" Fang Zhuo had no choice but to pick up the newspaper and take a look.

Yu Hong snorted: "I suspected that you were behind the last media report on Top. Who knows if you are looking for someone this time."

"No, really not." Fang Zhuo denied it twice. After reading the report in the "China Business News", he frowned and said, "This reporter interviewed me at the end of last month, but the transfer was a bit heavy."

The newspaper quoted Fang Zhuo, but the focus of the entire report was not on the online registration model, but on criticizing Pengcheng's administration for being careless in the medical field.

Fang Zhuo read it twice and felt something was wrong. Was he being shot?

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."

He praised the report and frowned: "Xiao Yu, do you remember which newspaper interviewed Lao Liang last time?"

"Southern Metropolis Daily." Yu Hong remembered it clearly.

"Then pay more attention to this newspaper recently and see if there is any response." Fang Zhuo said helplessly, "There is nothing wrong with what I said. It should be no big deal."

Soon, Southern Metropolis Daily responded.

The newspaper did not mention the Business News report, but only praised the cooperation between online medical care and Pengcheng administration, and mentioned that the people of Pengcheng have enjoyed the benefits brought by the unique innovation of the Internet.

Just two days later, "China Business News" once again reported a full page report, and the content mentioned more about the registration network. This time it was not just words, but also photos taken on the scene. The emphasis was on both reform and attention to steps.

The Southern Metropolis Daily lost its voice, but the Pengcheng Special Economic Zone Daily published an editorial the next day, mentioning that reform requires drastic determination, adapting measures to local conditions, and allowing innovation.

It is worth mentioning that the "Pengcheng Special Zone News" is the administrative organ of Pengcheng and is quite authoritative.

"China Business News" is very straightforward. The third report published on-site interviews from major hospitals in Pengcheng. It is more down-to-earth, more concerned about people's livelihood, and more evidence-based.

The other party was temporarily silent.

However, Fang Zhuo, who had witnessed the whole debate from afar, was confused. What was behind this? Are you discussing online registration? Can you please stop talking about me? There was nothing wrong with anything I said in the interview.

There was no response for the time being from newspapers that were obviously on the medical side, or in other words, obviously on the Pengcheng side, but Fang Zhuo suspected that the newspaper there had sent reporters to Lai'an and Luzhou to collect information on the ground... just like the people who run the newspapers. Go to Pengcheng...

Sometimes, even if there is no problem, there will be a problem, not to mention, the work of the registration website cannot satisfy everyone.

Based on this consideration, Fang Zhuo contacted Business Daily reporter Shen Nan, who had left his number before. However, the latter did not answer the phone or return the call.

It seemed that the situation was out of control - out of control for a small business like Guhahao.com. Even Secretary Liu Yangyang called to inquire about the situation. She sounded quite formal.

As for the two newspapers, I don’t know if they are trying their best...

Fang Zhuo was thinking of ways to cool himself down, but before he could think of it, he received a call from Penguin Ma.

The other party first reiterated the invitation to the program "Win in China", then seemed to accidentally talk about "Medical Online", a company that has become quite eye-catching in Pengcheng recently, and finally, he even praised it.

"Mr. Fang, you are very courageous and awesome."

Fang Zhuo thought it was a compliment and chatted and laughed with the other person without any fear.

However, when he hung up the phone, he was still a little distressed. Lao Liang's medical service seemed to be blocked, and Pengcheng was behind it, which made it look like he was in a ring. was also brought up.

The problem is that I don’t have any good voice channels to show that Guahao.com is an Internet company that is honest and focused on practical matters.

Otherwise, see if there are any recent industry conferences?

Fang Zhuo didn't sleep in the middle of the night, and he couldn't find a suitable occasion after contacting her.

The next day, Zheng Danrui, the leader of the promotion and application team whom I had not contacted for a long time, called.

"Mr. Fang has been very popular recently." He started teasingly.

Fang Zhuo yelled: "Team Leader Zheng, I did nothing but accepted an interview with a young reporter, and then I kept getting mentioned inexplicably."

Zheng Danrui was suspicious: "Really? I think you are quite pushy."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. I'm just trying to make money at most, so how could I interfere with public opinion?" Fang Zhuo only had money in his heart, no, only career.

"Come to Shanghai, I will introduce business to Mr. Fang." Zheng Danrui said calmly, "By the way, bring your company's information."

Fang Zhuo didn't get an answer when he asked, so he answered without any hesitation.
